💎 The Truth About Jewelry Markups: Why Lab-Grown is the Smart Choice

💎 The Truth About Jewelry Markups: Why Lab-Grown is the Smart Choice

Luxury Shouldn't Come with a 10x Price Tag

When most people shop for fine jewelry, they assume high price equals high quality. But the truth? Traditional jewelry is often marked up 5 to 10 times the original cost. That means you could be paying thousands more—just for the brand name and showroom lights.

At Caban Jewelers, we believe in something better:
Luxury without the markup.

💰 Where Does the Markup Come From?

Let’s break it down:

  • Big brands charge more because of overhead (expensive retail locations, advertising budgets, etc.).

  • Middlemen like distributors and wholesalers each add their own cut.

  • Traditional diamonds carry inflated pricing due to artificial scarcity and legacy supply chains.

The result? A ring that costs $500 to make might sell for $5,000 or more in a traditional jewelry store.

🔬 Why Lab-Grown Diamonds Change the Game

Lab-grown diamonds are 100% real diamonds—chemically and visually identical to mined diamonds. The only difference? They’re made in high-tech labs instead of dug from the earth.

This means:

  • You skip the mining markups.

  • You avoid unethical labor and environmental damage.

  • You get a bigger, better diamond for your budget.
